FORGIVING – MICRO CHALLENGE

Today, you will dig deep into your painful memories.

Think about the times something or someone caused you a lot of pain. Maybe your partner cheated on your, perhaps your best friend let you down, or your parent abandoned you when you were little. We all have people we haven’t forgiven yet.

To initiate the process of letting go of past hurt, sit on a chair and place an empty chair in front of you. Imagine that the person who is in need of your forgiveness is sitting there in front of you. In your own time start telling him/her how you feel. Show vulnerability. Speak from your heart. If it feels right, tell them that you forgive them.

If you find yourself stuck or struggling with expressing your thoughts and feelings, simply switch to the following sentences: I am sorry, I forgive you, Thank you, I love you (ho'oponopono method). Keep repeating these sentences for a few minutes (3-5 minutes).
